Discover the Magic of Bifold Doors in Gloucestershire

OB-49 and OB-72 bifold doors

The number in the bifold door model refers to the size of the sightlines.

• OB-49 Bifold Doors: Featuring the slimmest sightlines at just 49mm, these doors maximise the glass area for panoramic views of your garden or exterior surroundings.
• OB-72 Bifold Doors: With 72mm sightlines, these doors offer a more traditional style while letting in an abundance of natural light.

Increased Security & Energy Efficiency

Our bifold doors come double glazed as standard, with highly energy-efficient thermally broken aluminium frames that stop heat being lost through the frames. We use energy-saving glass and argon filled units for ultimate insulation and reduced energy bills.

What Are the Most Common Questions About Bifold Doors?

Customers often ask about the benefits of bifold doors, how they improve natural light and space, their durability, and maintenance requirements. Understanding these FAQs helps homeowners make informed decisions and ensures they get the most out of their bifold door investment.

What are standard bifold door sizes?

Bifold doors from Origin can be custom-made to suit your specific requirements. However, a ‘standard’ three-door set of bifold doors is typically between:

• 80 and 96 inches in height
• 70 and 96 inches in width

Are bifold doors top hung?

Origin offer bottom hung bifold doors via a seamlessly engineered four-wheeled short wheelbase carriage assembly. Bottom-run (or ‘hung’) bifold doors are thought to be more reliable than top-hung bifold doors as they don’t put as much weight on the top frame; making them much less likely to drop. Care should be taken to remove dirt and leaves that can get stuck in the bottom track and guide track and the sliding door mechanism to ensure smooth operation.
